§ Mr. SweeneyTo ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment (1) what is(a) the average sum per pupil and (b) the average percentage of the general schools budget, allotted by each local education authority in the current financial year for (i) mandatory exception from delegation, (ii) discretionary exceptions outside the potential schools budget, (iii) discretionary exceptions within the potential schools budget and (iv) the aggregate schools budget; [10401]
(2) what is (a) the average sum per pupil and (b) the average percentage of the general schools budget allotted by each local education authority in the current financial year for discretionary exceptions outside the potential schools budget and which is (i) delegated and (ii) not delegated to schools; [10400]
(3) what is (a) the average sum per pupil and (b) the average percentage of the general schools budget, allotted by each local education authority in the current financial year for (i) money allocated to schools via age-weighted pupil units, (ii) premature retirement compensation, (iii) school transport, (iv) statementing and support for statemented pupils and (v) school meals (net of income). [10402]
§ Mr. Robin SquireThe table sets out the information requested, except in respect of two items. In relation to funding allocated via age-weighted pupil units, I shall write to my hon. Friend when the requisite figures have been extracted and collated. Where a local education authority has chosen to delegate funding which it might have retained as a discretionary exception outside-or within-the potential schools budget, the amounts in question form part of the aggregated schools budget and cannot ordinarily be separately identified from the LEA's local management of schools' financial statements.
